The purpose of this collaborative learning activity is a type of discussion activity which promotes higher-level thinking, communication skills, self-management and leadership skills.
There is a large body of research that suggests that when children experience exposure to violence in the home, this can lead to later violent behaviour and violent offending. Critically evaluate one of the key risk factors that contribute to this according to the developmental perspective, and one of the protective factors?
Critically evaluate key theories and research in forensic psychology.
Demonstrate an understanding of the varying psychological underpinnings in the criminal justice system.
Apply theoretical understanding of offending behaviour to applied settings:
Offending behaviour.
Management and treatment of offenders.
Explore developmental theories of criminal behaviour.
Consider the role of trauma and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in the development of offending behaviour.
Outline the role of risk and protective factors.
